1. I saw baby Uggs the other day, so very cute but I wasn’t sure whether they said “practical and cosy in winter” or “I also carry my dog around in a handbag”. Mind you, our puppy has a pair of hiking boots, so I’m probably not the right person to judge.
2. My boyfriend was offered a chocolate lab/collie cross pup and so “Princess” (our cat) has been living in fear ever since. Ever since she heard the words “new puppy” she’s been throwing things into a suitcase (her spare fat suit, a travel sized bag of cat treats, a bandana) and stomping around the flat in a huff.
3. Boyfriend tried to take the puppy for a walk yesterday but Baby Boy decided to do his business about 3 inches from our front step…don’t think he fancied his chances in the Links, the snow on our front step came up past his belly.
4. “Princess” went outside and slid down our neighbour’s tin shed room (heh, cat on a cold tin roof) – came back more white and very unimpressed. Maybe more unimpressed as I was stood at the window taking photos. Is that considered animal cruelty?
5. The boyfriend was thinking up ways to retrieve her – the most sensible suggestion was asking the neighbours to let us into their garden, but the one we should have gone for was a large spoon attached to a long poking device made of disposable chopsticks. Used ones of course, as we are trying to be environmentally friendly. I suggested we poke her with the pointy end to get her attention, and then retract the poking device quickly into the flat and try to scoop her up with the spoon end. Could you imagine her happy little face when she realised she was getting prodded in the side with a dirty chopstick?
